Default best shocks for H&R OE springs?

I just ordered my springs and I was wondering what shocks I should get?
I'm thinkin about either Tokico, Bilstein, or Koni Reds... whichever is cheaper...
if you have experience with these springs, please share.

any other buyin tips would be nice too, thanx.

I'm using bilsteins with H&R oe, they work ok. If I could do it again, I'd go for koni yellows for the adjustability. The rear is bouncier than I would like.

i like my koni yellows after they are tuned

but, its kinda hard after you just ordered them, but i would get a stiffer spring like either comptech or neuspeed, but the h&r's will still be a very comfy ride with the konis on soft

i have hung with 993 911's, vettes, and other such fast cars through corners

how about KYB AGX's? their adjustable, their in your price range, your car isn't going to be dropped a lot so their still warrantied...

I have Koni Yellows w/ Eibach sportlines and I love them

Just get the Tokico blues. OE is practically stock height.

If you would like to spend money, than thats fine. But those springs were designed to be used on stock shocks. (in case you didnt know)

Yes, but I assumed since you bought the OE H&R's, that you didnt want to sacrifice THAT much ride.
